I recently found out that I'm the most miserable when I'm rushing. If something happens, and I allow it to break the flow of things, I become stressed and worried and time flies. W…

Oh wow, my apology - didn't know that and didn't notice the length of the hexademical number. TIL.

Good project, nice write-up. However, to me as a person with an anti-library as well, this kind of defies the purpose of having it in the first place. I can't say I browse my books…

Me too. It's phenomenal, especially the first book and the pilgrims' stories. Such a moving mix of religious mystics, science fiction and the dreaded AI. The second one builds up t…

Or, even more likely, a bad solution for a non-existent problem.
